G-Class Owner's Manual - Mercedes G-Class, G-Wagon, G500, G55 ...

Risk of injury G
There is a risk of injury if the bonnet is open
– even if the engine is not running.
Parts of the engine can become very hot. To
avoid burning yourself, only touch those
components specified in the Owner's Manual
and observe the notes on the associated
risks.
The engine has an electronic ignition system
which carries a high voltage.
For this reason, never touch the ignition system
components (ignition coil, ignition cables,
spark plug connections, test socket) if:
the engine is running
the engine is being started
the ignition is switched on and the engine
is being cranked by hand
The radiator fan can start up automatically,
even if the key is removed from the ignition.
Keep away from the area of rotation of the
fan blades.

Make sure that nobody can be trapped as you
close the bonnet.
Lower the bonnet and let it drop from a
height of about 20 cm.
The bonnet engages audibly.
Check that the bonnet has engaged
properly.
If the bonnet can be raised slightly, it is
not properly locked. Open the bonnet
again and close it with a little more
force.
